When a video game series is as widely popular as the Halo series, which includes Halo 3, of course, then the result is going to be many screenshots takes. This article focuses on some of the weird and wild Halo 3 screenshots.
Before mentioning the Halo 3 screenshots specifically, let's take a look at the numbers that generate all of this media. Over 9 million copies of Halo 3 have been sold so far. That means that if each person who bought the game plays for only 10 hours, there are more than 90 million hours of game time from which to choose screen shots. A lot can happen in 90 million hours, and with all the picture-uploading websites available to people, a lot of it has been uploaded.
One of the things in Halo 3 that has often been copied in Halo 3 screenshots is what Master Chief looks like or more specifically, what his face looks like. If you use a search engine to find the top 10 Halo 3 screenshots, you'll find a picture of Master Chief lying dead on the ground, clearly not showing a face inside his helmet. This explains why we never see his face, say many people, because he does not really have one.
Another one of the Halo 3 screenshots showing in the top 10 Halo 3 screenshots is the one of a Marine getting hammered on a floodgate. Someone said that it looked a lot like Han Solo when he was frozen in Carbonite. And guess what? - they're absolutely correct.
The makers of Halo 3 decided to make it a lot simpler for people to take Halo 3 screenshots and to share them on the Internet. To accomplish this they created a saved films feature right inside the game. This feature allows people to slow down the action, or even to freeze it, change the camera position and even move the camera around to get exactly the screenshot they want to have. Generally speaking, the 'Save Films' feature records all the action that takes place in the game, so it can later be converted into videos are screenshots.
Yet another feature that has a lot to do with Halo 3 screenshots in the 'Save Films' feature, is the watching of previously saved films. You see, the saves are not just images or video, they're real game data. This means two things: A] the file size is pretty small and B] the entire game can be watched from various angles on the Xbox 360.
Which means to say that a person could replay a game again and again, seeing new things in new places every time they watch it. That's a great deal better than simple Halo 3 screenshots.
